Last Saturday I had to go solo to a comedy gig at The Soho Theatre , Dean St., (don’t worry I did meet Lieutenant No.1 in the bar). I went to see Brett Goldstein in his show ‘Brett Goldstein: Grew Up In A Strip Club’. I missed him last year at The Edinburgh Festival and he has since had great reviews…
I have been meaning to go to The Cinnamon Club restaurant for a number of years. Primarily because it’s one of the few restaurants that have been consistently recommended to me in Victoria, London.

Visit to The Barbican 6th January – National Youth Orchestra concert http://vimeo.com/23801458 Arriving at the main entrance to the Barbican was uneventful, I was able to pick up our ‘dear leader’ from her taxi without a hitch. The Barbican disabled access is pretty good with lots of ramps and wheel ways … however it is,…
